The Launch of the GSLV-D5 scheduled for 1650 hrs today (August 19, 2013)
is called off, as a leak is observed in the UH25 fuel system of the
liquid second stage during the pre-launch pressurisation phase on the
vehicle just two hours before the scheduled lift-off.
The propellants are being drained from the Cryogenic Stage, Liquid Second Stage and the four liquid Strap-ons of GSLV-D5. The vehicle will be moved back to the Vehicle Assembly Building for further actions.
The revised launch date will be announced after a detailed assessment.
